Petitions

[Freak]

No, I will not support marriage rights for homosexuals.

 

[Lucky]

Okie dokie, I "signed" the petition.

 

[Christine]

I'm #34, but besides not supporting the marriage of sodomites, I don't support the lifestyle (sin).

 

[lucybelle]

I totally disagree with Gay Marriage - not just because of my religious convictions, but I also believe it's a lousy idea economically speaking as well...
Down with Gay Marriage!
They can have any thing else but marriage...for example, I'm willing to let them have Aids - and most other sexually transmitted diseases...and....I think that's being very generous.

Of the five votes for gay marriage, how many of those are homosexuals that want to have the right to get married?

Homosexuals already have the right to get married.

Just not to each other. :freak:

Wow, so this is what being in the majority feels like. I like this new feeling.
BTW, not only am I against homosexuality, but also adultery, and all the other improper sexual relations mentioned in Leviticus 18, I guess I am now back in the minority.

AS...

I don't necessarily want homosexual marriage legalised for myself... but if I ever decided to marry a woman, I'd want to be able to.

So I won't answer that question with a yes or a no. I want homosexual marriage legalised so that other people can enter into marriage, should they desire to.

I'm all for the acceptance of monogamous marriage as an ideal for everyone.

Why do you say that gay marriage is a bad idea economically?

I'll complain less as long as it is kept in Australia

Fair enuff.

You do realise that a marriage undertaken in Australia will probably be recognised in the US? It works for Canada and the Netherlands.

If it comes up for vote, I will be against it also.

And do you also believe that if a man in some other countriy marries 12 women and emigrates to the US that ALL will be recognized here as his legal wives?

I based my comment on actual fact. Homosexuals can currently marry in Amsterdam or Canada and have their marriages recognised in the US. It's happened already.

 

[Crow]

And what are you calling recognition? Can the homosexuals claim joint filing status on taxes? Are they entitled to family leave? Or are you referring to people who tolerate their behavior, just as they tolerate the unmarried gay couples that are already here.

What legal status do these "marriages" have?

 

[firechyld]

Good questions. I'm not a hundred percent sure.

I know there's no full allotment of family benefits, but they can legally declare themselves married.

I'll have a dig and see what that actually entails.

I'm against adultery, rape and murder, too... guess that makes me a Christian fanatic.

You might have missed my question.

Excellent 40 votes for morality :Nineveh:

 

[firechyld]

Isn't this poll a tad redundant in this environment?
